In late autumn, the days are short, and after the sun goes down, it gets dark very quickly.

From the pedestrian street to the boulevard in the school, it seems that in the blink of an eye, the sky is completely dark.

The various decorations prepared for the moon hunting on both sides of the road are becoming more and more abundant.

The plush cloth that is more than one person tall occasionally wanders around weakly, occasionally caught by a few passing witches and taking a group photo, and the colorful bunting is hunting in the night wind, and a few dazzling electric lights flash on the flag from time to time, adding a bit of tension to the upcoming hunting competition.

The most striking thing is the lanterns floating in all corners of the university.

Most of these lanterns are palace lanterns, chubby, round, and look very festive. Their skeletons are imbued with spells by wizards, and they can only wander and float slowly in a narrow space of one meter and five to two meters above the ground.

The red candle sat on the thin wooden skeleton in the palace lamp and wept secretly, and the candlelight through the light gauze and silk skin clearly showed the 'curse riddle' printed on it, and many students stood under these palace lamps and meditated, trying to solve the mystery.

This is the warm-up made by the organizers of this year's school hunting party before the official opening of the moon hunt.

From the setting of the sun to the mid-moon of the moon, lanterns of all kinds will float around the entire school. The lantern is set up with various puzzles about spells, and if you answer the riddle, the lantern will burst, exploding a cloud of mist glittering with Venus and a random bouquet of flowers.

The bouquet also has a talisman on it—a standard talisman for a lantern riddle spell.

This kind of quiz with prizes has obviously piqued the interest of many students.

Therefore, in the past few nights, the school has become much more lively, and it has finally brought out a bit of the atmosphere of moon hunting.

Zheng Qing followed Jiang Yu and walked around the campus—although he did so under the pretext of sending the witch back to the dormitory, everyone knew that it was rare for a wizard to have an accident in the academy, even if it was getting late.

Zheng Qing didn't say it, Jiang Yu naturally had no reason to ask.

She simply walked slowly, answering the lanterns that floated in front of her from time to time, and Zheng Qing also occasionally went up to have fun.

It must be admitted that wizards from families often have a unique advantage when it comes to the basics of magic. The lantern in front of Jiang Yu would burst out of a puff of golden mist every once in a while, and after a while, the witch was already holding many bouquets of flowers in her hands.

It's just that for some reason, the witch's bouquet is all roses.

Red, white, gold, blue, roses of all colors compete in the arms of the witch, and they are delicate.

"Take it. Jiang Yu suddenly turned around and motioned for Zheng Qing to take the pile of bouquets. Maybe it's the reflection of flowers, maybe it's the rendering of lanterns, and there's a faint blush on the witch's fair cheeks.

"I'm going to collect the talismans that I put in the bouquet. She muttered, explaining.

It is indeed necessary.

Zheng Qing looked at the shining rune paper inserted in the bouquet, nodded again and again, and hurriedly reached out to pick up those flowers, but accidentally touched a hand under the bouquet.

That hand was slightly cold, which made the young public student tremble in his heart.

Jiang Yu lowered his eyelids and moved his eyelashes slightly.

"One, two, three,......" she whispered, searching for her loot among the bouquets of roses.

"That's amazing. The young government-funded student was heartily impressed.

"It's so-so... When I was a child, I used to play this game of 'curse puzzles'. The witch pursed her lips and smiled, her chin slightly raised, her long black hair undulating in the wind over her shoulders.

Zheng Qing suddenly felt that now was a good opportunity.

"Well," he asked tentatively, "do you like hunting?"

"I like to watch hunting, I don't like hunting. Jiang Yu seemed very happy that there was finally some other topic between the two, and immediately opened the conversation: "The family has to hold a large-scale hunting party every year, usually in spring or autumn...... Sometimes, the wizarding families with better relationships are invited to come and watch the ceremony...... Last year, Yunmeng Autumn Hunting, the hunting team in the clan hunted a big demon...... The Wizards Alliance also gave out a letter of commendation. ”

Zheng Qing sniffled, feeling very stressed.

He was suddenly a little unsure if his sesame-sized thing could arouse the eldest lady's interest.

“...... Traditionally, our coming-of-age ceremony involves a solitary vigil in the hunting grounds...... It's really scary, there is not a single figure in the dark hunting ground, except for a law book, not even a single amulet is allowed to be brought in. ”

Zheng Qing listened to the witch talk about hunting while writing in his heart.

Finally, when Jiang Yu finished talking about her coming-of-age ceremony, the young public-funded student couldn't help but ask, "Did you participate in this year's school hunting party?"

"School Hunting Party?" The witch glanced at him in surprise, as if she had noticed something, and her expression suddenly became a little strange: "I am the representative of the class who is responsible for communicating with the organizing committee of the school hunting meeting, and I must have participated...... Or do you mean 'in person'?"

She bites the word 'personally' very hard.

Zheng Qing nodded quickly: "There will be a derivative event ...... the school hunting"

"Freshman Hunt. Jiang Yu held his forehead, and his expression fell slightly: "Do you want to talk about this?

"Do you know?!" Zheng Qing didn't notice the witch's subtle expression, but asked excitedly, "Only our freshmen are allowed to participate in the Freshman Hunting Competition...... The rewards are very generous, are you interested in participating?"

"Whose hunting team did you join, Downton? or Matthew?" Jiang Yu did not answer Zheng Qing's words, but instead asked a question that made him a little dazed.

"Downton, Matthew?" Zheng Qing chewed on these two names in his mouth for a moment before he reacted: "They are also going to participate in the Freshman Hunting Competition?"

"You don't know?" the witch's beautiful eyebrows frowned together, "And whose hunting team are you in?"

"I formed it myself. Zheng Qing scratched his head and smiled.

Jiang Yu finally stopped talking.

She blinked, looking the wizard up and down with a hurtful gaze.

After a long time, the witch slowly said in an inquiring tone: "If you are the main hunter, even if I agree to be your auxiliary hunter, it will be difficult for our hunting team to perform well in the hunting grounds. ”

Zheng Qing smiled bitterly.

"That's a tact. The young public scholarship student smiled self-deprecatingly and shook his head: "Although I am the captain of the hunting team, the main hunter is Zhang Jixin, the auxiliary hunters are looking for Xin Banner and Xiao Xiao, and the hunters are the blue of the Star Academy...... I only work as a ranger who fights soy sauce. ”

Jiang Yu's face flushed slightly.

"Since your hunting team has Elder Zhang and Dr. Xiao, it should be no worse than other hunting teams. She lowered her head and continued to search for the rune paper among the bouquets of roses, muttering, "I see that your hunting party is full...... Are you looking for me to be a substitute?"

"If there's a replacement, it's me. Zheng Qing immediately vetoed this possibility, he paused, and finally said his request: "I came to you because I wanted you to be the manager of the hunting team...... The Doctor once said that there is a famous saying in the wizarding world: 'Behind every successful hunting team, there is a good manager'...... I want you to be the one standing behind our hunting party. ”

Jiang Yu did not give a reply immediately.

But she had finally finished sorting out the rune paper in the bouquet of roses.

"Give me the flowers. The witch gestured.

Zheng Qing held the large bouquet of roses and carefully handed them into the witch's arms. This time, he was very careful and did not touch the witch's hand.

"What are you two doing?!" a surprised voice interrupted the two young wizards as they handed over bouquets.

Zheng Qing turned around.

Li Meng stood not far away, holding a stuffed bear, looking at them in shock.
